I agree, I think some of these people running for State Committee are confused and think they are running for State Rep--there is not much of anything a State Committee person can do about taxes or how the state budget is spent for example.

And why can't someone who writes above a 5th grade reading level run for something for a change? I nominate Gort!

As a voter, I appreciate the fact that Kathy did articulate where she stands on a few issues in spite of the fact that she will not be addressing such issues as a State Committee member. She will, however, if the committee continues to endorse candidates to our chagrin, be one of the committee votes. Beside that, many present state committee members need replacing about as much as our corrupt politicians do.

Let's just say I try my best to be the person you see.I am a hard worker. Some of the comments are nasty.I do agree about those comments on State Committee which mention absence at meetings and having others cast their vote is not an ideal member.

Lies and other items are not good.People make nameless comments to take shots at individuals.

Comments left by those who represent an organization or individual have more weight.

What is your position on the PA GOP endorsing candidates? do you believe that the State Committee should vote for the GOP to endorse candidates or do you believe that the party should not endorse until the people have voted in the primary?

My answer:

The Primary should be a time for all candidates (rich or poor) to step up, voice their ideas, concerns, solutions and questions.

Politics should not be based on your position in life: poor, middle class or rich.

More people struggle everyday to survive.There are wealthy individuals who do not step up for the same reasons: Personal attacks and groups who want "favors". BRIBES seem to be a common practice.

Was there an answer to the endorsement question in there somewhere. Seems like a long explanation that never answered the question. Also, from Kathy's other answers, it seems that she has no clue what her resposibilities on state committee would be.

To whoever this anonymous person is: COuld it be oneof the other candidates? Be a little brave and leave you name. You posted your answer twice...are you drinking again? Get to bed earlier and post your comments when you are pleasant and alert.

:^)

I did answer.I stated my belief about Primary endorsements. I will voice my opinion about primary endorsements.I will not send in a proxy vote unless I am too ill to attend.

Ok, so you still did not answer the question, should the state GOP endorse? You said "The Primary should be a time for all candidates (rich or poor) to step up, voice their ideas, concerns, solutions and questions."Duh! That's what a primary is, a time for the people to vote for all the candidates. I don't know what rich or poor is all about.

By the way, if you don't know who is posting, why are you accusing them of being an alcholic. A little pre-judgemental and not so open minded.

The local Republican office says Linda Urban has NEVER gone to any state meetings of the commitee. Do you pledge to attend all meetings of the committee? Will you do a better job than Linda? We, the public , need to know.Thank you.

Hello!I just saw this and I think poeple should take a joke once in a while.

Not pre-judging..just wondering about the no-name comments.

The rich or poor comment implies that those with money are the only candidates who can be successful.Why do we require primary endorsements. Nameless comments appear to be an attempt to discourage individuals.

I will attend the meetings!Read other candidate statementson the Luzerne County GOP website.
